How Magica Tracks Your Mileage on Android

Add your car once, then just drive.

Every drive, recorded on its own

Magica notices when you start driving from your phone's motion or your car's Bluetooth, and records the trip: route, distance, duration, cost, weather and elevation.

Business or personal, sorted by day and time

Classify a trip with one swipe, or set rules and let Magica do it: weekdays from 9 to 6 are Business, weekends are Personal. Rules can also use the place you leave from or arrive at.

  • Your own categories next to Business and Personal
  • Merge split trips, add a forgotten one, create the return trip with one tap
  • Pause tracking when you don't need it

Mileage deduction and reimbursement, worked out

Set a rate for each vehicle, such as the IRS standard mileage rate or the one your employer pays, and Magica works out the value of every business mile. The PDF or CSV report is ready for your accountant, your employer or your tax return.

  • A monthly report to save and share
  • A PDF dossier for each vehicle

Bi-Fuel Cars and Plug-in Hybrids, Priced Right

Two tanks, one real cost per trip

If your car runs on gas and LPG or CNG, or it's a plug-in hybrid, Magica gives it a second tank or a battery. Every trip is split between the two fuels and its cost counts both, so your cost per mile is finally the real one.

  • The range left in each tank, right on the dashboard
  • Real consumption for each fuel, from your fill-ups and charges
  • Gas, diesel, LPG, CNG and EV charging, full or partial

Android and iPhone in the Same Household? They Sync

Magica runs on both, and the two versions sync with each other on the same Wi-Fi network, directly between the phones. Nothing goes through a server.

Android and iPhone

Share a car with someone who uses an iPhone, and the vehicle's data stays aligned on both phones.

Android and Android

The same works between two Android phones, for a family or for a work phone.

Over Wi-Fi, no server

On the same Wi-Fi network, your data travels from one device to the other with no server in between.

Your Trips Stay on Your Phone

Magica has no cloud: there's no server of mine where your trips end up.

  • No account
  • No shared location
  • Export whenever you want
  • Backup to a file you keep

You don't sign up and you don't log in. When you need your data, you export it as PDF or CSV, or you save a backup file. A few features need the internet, such as weather, maps and voice commands: the privacy policy lists every one of them. It's an architecture choice, not a marketing promise.

Maintenance and Renewals, Never Missed

Reminders by date or by mileage

Insurance, registration, inspection, oil changes, tires: Magica reminds you on a date or after a set number of miles. Attach invoices and documents and keep the full cost history of each vehicle.

  • A garage with as many vehicles as you like: cars, motorcycles, scooters, vans
  • Where you parked, and what parking cost
  • Odometer history
